Chapter 63: Lü Bu’s play-acting wins over the soldiers who came to his rescue.

Chapter 64: Lü Bu poisons Liu Bian and sets up Li Ru to take the blame.

Chapter 65: Lü Bu alienates Liu Xie from Dong Zhuo.

Chapter 66: The Handicapped Warriors attack Dong Zhuo’s entourage.

Chapter 67: Dong Zhuo and Li Ru ambush Lü Bu and Liaoyuan Huo.

Chapter 68: Li Ru’s loyal troops corner Lü Bu’s palace accomplices.

This volume features various complications to the assassination plot by having Li Ru and Lü Bu scheme hard to outmaneuver each other for the most part, only to reveal that Dong Zhuo was well-prepared all along and basically acted to deceive and expose Lü Bu.

KSM: Kasama

“Up to now, we have witnessed only the first act of the civil war – the constitutional waging of war. The second act, the revolutionary waging of war, is at hand.” Karl Marx 1862 150 years ago this month, the Emancipation Proclamation went into affect — declaring that ending slavery was now a war aim […]

The following letter was shared by some participants in Kasama with the Communist Party of Nepal-Maoist at the start of their recent national congress. This meeting represented a regroupment of revolutionary forces who were previously part of the Unified Communist Party of Nepal (Maoist) — and who are straining to retake the revolutionary road. From […]

Nullzone: ZERO ANTHROPOLOGY

Did Canadians get to vote on whether or not to bring potential terrorists or supporters of terrorists to Canada? No. Will Canadians get a say in where these potentially dangerous men will be settled? Highly unlikely. Ninety-eight members of the White Helmets, and a few hundred of their families, were evacuated by Israel and allies […]

Why is there growing inequality in wealth distribution in the US? Is inequality inevitable? If inequality is inevitable, can it be useful? Can inequality become a problem? If so, when does inequality become a problem? How can a society reduce problematic inequality? Which model of growth should the US be emulating? What are the keys […]

Finally, on Monday, July 16, 2018, the Helsinki Summit bringing together Russian President Vladimir Putin and US President Donald Trump took place, despite shrill demands that it be stopped, canceled, or turned into a platform for more aggression. “President Trump should cancel his meeting with Vladimir Putin until Russia takes demonstrable and transparent steps to […]

In Madeleine Albright’s new book, dramatically titled Fascism: A Warning, she slams the anti-globalization crowd, claiming yet again that globalization is here to stay—it’s a “fact of life”. It must be another of those facts of life that we are seeing today, like “Donald Trump will never be elected president” or “UK voters will ultimately […]

Both leaders arrived in Singapore, with significant excitement greeting them. Trump, arriving from a bitter G7 meeting, after which he attacked Justin Trudeau personally, flew into Singapore on Sunday, June 10, as did Kim Jong-un, who took serious precautions in his travel arrangements. By this point Trump had already significantly lowered expectations, saying that it […]

PLEASE GIVE RAVAGES A CHANCE BEFORE IT GETS RAVAGED BY TIME

Yes, it can get complicated at times (or perhaps for some, it may not be sophisticated and nuanced enough). Sure, the scans can be substandard and the unofficial English translation(s) a bit unpolished. True, the faces can get repetitive, the close-ups can get boring, the horses can look silly, the action can get reduced, there are few moments of fan service, and the plans and predictions are somewhat hyperbolic. Fine, it’s not (Japanese) manga and it’s just yet another reinterpretation of an oft-visited historical period – but still, the series has its charms waiting to be appreciated: the poetic lines; the quotations of classical works; the clash of ideas and ideals with the brutal realities of war; the creative twists; and so on…

FOR THE PERPLEXED

For those who just want to stick to Ravages, don’t wander off into the middle portion (past a bunch of Youtube embedded playlists) where many of the feeds are located. Be sure to check the headings of the links to the left to see which ones are closely related to Ravages. The (visible) followed blogs to the right are hardly related to Ravages. In addition, a few things related to Ravages can be found in the footers, mixed with other stuff. Oh, and do savor the music while figuring out where else to go.

Bulletin

Character lists finally in fleshed-out form, to be updated when new people appear or are mentioned.

Recaps on hold until a new arc has been scanlated. Chapter summaries are still suspended. Blog operations remain slow due to a temporary shift in focus to other projects (and offline matters).

In case it’s not glaringly obvious yet, I want more people to answer my polls in the Inquisitor’s Corner. I’m also asking for comments and advice. And if anyone else wants to submit a testimonial or a review (or if anyone wants to join the blog as an author), feel free to get in touch.

BONUS C

Virtual Presence

Just some advocate for the further appreciation of The Ravages of Time.

Also interested in various topics and discourses (like conspiracies and yandere and communism and philosophy), but would wish to focus on Ravages without necessarily excluding other issues and matters, at least as far as this venue is concerned.
